If you meet Tippy, you will love her right away as we do.

She has an affectionate, engaging, and outgoing personality.

She also is a beautiful girl, very feminine, with a small, dainty head, gorgeous dark eyes and a shiny black coat.

She is a small greyhound at

approximately 59 lbs. but is still in racing condition.

She will be a couple of pounds heavier as a pet with a more sedentary lifestyle. Her call name comes from the small white tip on the end of her tail.

She also has a spot of white on her neck and one on

her chest.

Tippy came to us from a very good kennel, so she has learned to trust and enjoy being with people.

Her owner sent us the cute photo above of Tippy and her sister, Tubby, when they were small pups.

Her sister has already completed

her racing career and has found a wonderful homes through BAGA.

Tippy enjoys roaming around the fenced home in her foster home, exploring everything.

She is inquisitive and curious, enjoys being with people, and is intelligent and obedient.

She will come

galloping up to you when you call her and otherwise just likes being near you.

Tippy is quiet and easy going, yet playful.

She gets along wonderfully with the other greyhounds in her foster home, but seems nervous when she is left alone without other dogs, so she will need to go to home with another dog for company.

Tippy was a little too interested in chasing the cats when we tested her, so we do not recommend her for a home with a cat, or a tiny dog.

Medium (25-30 lbs.) or large size dogs would be perfect.

We have chosen Tippy for the greyhound training program at Hardee Correctional Institution.

She will begin training on April 20th and will graduate on June 22nd.

When she graduates, Tippy will be proficient in all

her basic commands:

sit, lie down, go to place (her bed or mat), wait at the door, stay, and come on recall.

The prison trained greyhounds are much in demand, so it you are interested in Tippy, please contact us right away.

Tippy's $450 adoption fee includes her spay, teeth cleaning, vaccines, Bordetella (to protect against kennel cough), microchip, leash and collar, adoption guide, BAGA identification tag, 9 weeks of specialized training, and 30 days free health insurance. Your adoption fee helps us to defray some of the veterinary and care costs we have incurred for Tippy, and will help us to continue our work on behalf of the greyhounds.
